Libyan heartthrob Hamid Al Shaeri pleads innocence

Another day, another story of an Arab celeb claiming innocence to fraud charges. This time Libyan singer Hamid Al Shaeri tries to clear his name.

After the verdict for his imprisonment due to failing to pay overdue income taxes that reached over 600 thousand Egyptian pounds, Libyan singer Hamid Al Shaeri[2] is struggling to reach an agreement with the Egyptian Tax Revenue and clear his name.

According to Sayidaty.net, Hamid’s lawyer presented official documents that prove the singer did not avoid paying his due taxes. The documents show a settlement between Hamid [3]and the Ministry of Finance and that he paid the entire amount he owed. The court has postponed the hearing to look into the new documents presented.
